⚖️ What’s My Number? — Estate Planning Edition

📅 Aired November 1, 2025

In this week’s Purpose Driven Finances, Allan tackles political gridlock, shifting market sentiment, and the power of planning ahead — in both portfolios and legacies.

Segment One — Market & Portfolio Management: Political Gridlock and Market Jitters

Washington’s shutdown threat and debate over SNAP benefits ripple through the consumer economy — with $8 billion in monthly grocery spending at stake. Meanwhile, Meta’s earnings miss pressures the broader tech sector, and the Supreme Court’s review of tariff authority could reshape U.S. trade policy. Allan explains why “markets like rules — not debates about the rules.”

He also covers the Federal Reserve’s expected rate cuts, small-cap earnings up 25 %, and what easing inflation means for both risk assets and real returns. The message: opportunity exists even in uncertainty — if your portfolio adapts.

Segment Two — What’s My Number? for Estate Planning

Estate planning isn’t just for the wealthy — it’s for anyone who wants clarity, control, and confidence about their legacy.

“Everyone has an estate plan — the only question is whether it’s intentional or accidental.”

Key topics include:

“Insurance isn’t the estate plan — it’s the financial muscle that supports it.”

Allan also previews the upcoming 2026 Estate Planning Dinners, designed to help families build purpose-driven legacy plans.
